Financial Resources

Pursuing your education is one of the most valuable investments you can make in yourself. Aspatria Institute believes in offering quality education at an affordable price; it’s part of how we strengthen our communities.

To make it possible for all qualified students to complete an Aspatria Institute program, we offer financial assistance through our no-interest, in-house financing. When you sign up for our financing, you make payments in weekly or monthly installments. Follow the payment plan established at the time of enrollment, and you won’t pay extra in fees.

Payment Plan Policies

  • Deposit is 20% of tuition cost (due prior to beginning the program)

  • Make weekly installments or monthly installments (follow your payment plan)

  • No interest or APR will be charged for in-house financing

  • Make payments with cash, cashier’s check, and major credit cards

  • A payment plan will be issued before classes begin, based on the total cost of attendance.

  • Each payment plan will be given to the student and recorded in the student’s account ledger.

Scholarships

While federal funding is not an option at this time, Aspatria Institute is proud to offer additional financial resources to prospective students through scholarships. Aspatria Institute students can apply for scholarships.*

*Scholarships available pending eligibility and other prerequisites.

Program Withdrawal & Refunds

In the event a student does not enter a program for which he/she has enrolled, cancels enrollment, withdraws, or is dismissed from the school prior to the completion of the program, a refund calculation is made in accordance with the following refund policy:

  • Cancellation can be made in person, by electronic mail, or by Certified Mail.

  • All monies will be refunded if the school does not accept the applicant or if the student cancels within three (3) business days after signing the enrollment agreement and making the initial payment.

  • An assessment will be made for supplies, materials, and kits which are not returnable because of use.

  • Cancellation after the third (3rd) business day, but before the first class, results in a refund of all money paid, except for the registration fee (not to exceed $150.00).

  • Cancellation after attendance has begun, but prior to 50% completion of the program, will result in a Pro Rata refund computed on the number of hours completed to the total program hours.

  • Cancellation after completing 50% of the program will result in no refund.

  • Termination Date: The termination date, for refund computation purposes, is the last date of attendance. Unless earlier written notice is received.

  • Refunds will be made within 30 days of termination of students’ enrollment or receipt of cancellation notice from the student.
